Navigating transitionary periods, relationships, identity, and feelings of loneliness, guilt, or shame can be overwhelmingly difficult to manage, not including additional stressors surrounding large family dynamics and conflicts. I am here to support the BIPOC community, in foster and adoptive families, particularly transracial adoptions, and people looking for support in foster and adoption trauma, identity, self-worth, and feelings of fear of failure. If you are struggling to navigate this world and need someone to talk to but don’t know how please reach out. I am here to offer support to teens, young adults, and couples.

As a transracial adoptee from South Korea, I bring a culturally affirming and intersectional lens to every session, using structural, experiential, and narrative modalities. I can offer a voice and guide you through anxiety, depression, relationships, and trauma. I have worked in various settings since 2011, I know personally the realities and challenges.

It takes courage to reach out and may feel scary, but I promise that you have the answers within yourself and my role is to help you unveil it–layer by layer–so that you can bring your best self forward. I believe therapy is the best form of exploring your strengths and sharing your own stories of healing and growth. Let’s connect–reach me by email or phone.

I am passionate about helping others thrive, not just survive, on their journey. I have a special interest in family of origin issues, pre-marriage counseling, divorce, remarriage, blended families, and codependency issues. I also specialize in grief counseling, life transitions, career development, and spiritual concerns.

I am trained in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). I work with individual adults using a systemic, strengths-based, positive, solution-focused, integrative approach. For clients who are interested, I also provide Prepare/Enrich Relationship and CliftonStrengths assessments.

I believe it takes a lot of strength to reach out for help. Engaging in therapy often means a willingness to be vulnerable. It's an honor and privilege for me to experience that space with clients. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, grief, life transitions, or just feeling stuck, therapy can be a place to slow down and make sense of yourself, others and the world around you. I work with teens, adults, and older adults, and I especially enjoy supporting folks who are neurodivergent (like those with ADHD or autism), as well as older adults and caregivers navigating big life changes.

My style is warm, thoughtful, and low-pressure. I want you to feel safe showing up just as you are. I mostly use a psychodynamic approach, which means I’m interested in how your past experiences and relationships might be showing up in your current life.

I am also trained in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART). This type of therapy is commonly used for treating trauma symptoms, but can be used for anxiety, depression, grief/loss, and eating disorder symptoms. We’ll work together to notice patterns and build insight that helps you move forward.

Starting therapy can feel intimidating, but you don’t have to face it alone. I offer a safe, supportive environment where you can share your experiences and begin your journey towards healing. With over 20 years working in the mental health field, I help children, teens, young adults, and adults manage anxiety, depression, and everyday struggles. I provide psychoeducation about how anxiety and depression affect each of us and teach healthy coping skills as a path forward in life.

I am trained in CBT, DBT, and trauma informed practices. My experience comes from work in various mental health settings. This includes providing in home services to children with Autism, years of experience working in day treatment with adolescents/teens, and now years of experience in outpatient therapy settings.

I genuinely value helping clients regain confidence and resume activities impacted by mental health concerns. If you have questions or want to learn more, I invite you to reach out. I’m here to support you every step of the way.

My approach aligns with the belief that folks are much more than their symptoms and that each individual has inherent dignity and worth. I provide a customized unique approach with each person to best help them reach their goals. I work with individuals who are struggling to find purpose, are working through a difficult transition, and those who feel like their emotions are controlling them. I have a published literature review on body positivity and the influence on self-image; I utilize self-compassion and somatic techniques to increase empathetic and validating inner self talk.

My specialties include working with queer and nonbinary folx, polyamory and ethical non-monogamy, those who are struggling with interpersonal skills and setting boundaries, and those who struggle with complex thoughts and habits surrounding eating and self-image.

I am a facilitator of DBT groups and provide individual DBT therapy, evidence-based psychotherapy, and individual skills training. When developing a therapeutic relationship, I will work with you as partners to create an environment where we can explore your goals and foster your ideal life worth living.

I bring experience from a variety of clinical settings and help individuals create meaningful change in their mental health. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) with a person-centered approach, tailoring each session to your needs. I work with trauma, anxiety, depression, personality disorders, and substance use. I believe therapy should feel supportive and empowering. My goal is to help you better understand yourself, build resilience, and move toward a life aligned with your values. I work with teens, young adults, and families, offering a safe, nonjudgmental space for growth.

Client needs always come first, so I use therapeutic techniques that help empower individuals to live their best life. I enjoy working with teens, adolescents, and young adults, along with families. My approach is non-judgmental and tailored to your needs in order to create a safe and comfortable place for my clients to land.

If you're ready to take the next step in your journey, I’m here to help. Together, we can create a path forward that feels right for you. Reach out today to start a conversation and see how therapy can support your growth and well-being.

I operate from a holistic perspective and believe that every client deserves a collaborative wellness journey tailored to their unique needs. My areas of specialty include art therapy, mindfulness, and positively focused talk therapy. I enjoy helping my clients create fulfilling and intentional lives, while leaving behind the negative beliefs that no longer serve them. As a strength-based therapist, I believe in harnessing and building upon the positive aspects of each client, with the goals of personal empowerment and overcoming current challenges.

I enjoy working with young adults, adolescents, and school-aged children. I also enjoy working with adults of all ages providing therapeutic support to caregivers, persons living with chronic and/or serious illnesses, persons coping with grief/loss, and individuals/families with relational and family dynamics issues/conflict. ‍

Sometimes our lives can become overwhelming and challenging. We might encounter events that are out of our control. Perhaps our relationships are rocky, or we are at some point in our lives where change is disruptive and hard to maneuver. Suddenly, we find ourselves needing support and want to explore what therapy might have to offer. I work with individuals, families, and couples in a range of ages, teen to elder. I am an inclusive provider who is a strong supporter/advocate in working with BIPOC and LBGTQIA2+ communities.

I find it really helpful to create a solid therapeutic connection which allows the individual to feel they are truly validated. Some of the interventions I am trained in include EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing), Brainspotting, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Sand Tray Therapy, and Internal Family Systems.

I deeply value the therapeutic process. My approach is to meet you where you are at and walk with you as you make changes in your personal life journey to restore wellness. My clinical work encompasses an evidence- and strengths-based approach in collaboration with your unique perspective, identities, lived experiences, wisdom, and history. I strive to create a nonjudgmental, safe, supportive and authentic therapeutic environment while supporting you as you create positive changes and move towards personal goals.

I’ve worked in a variety of mental health settings, which include residential treatment, community mental health and college counseling. I am passionate about working with people that identify as LGBTQ+, BIPOC, Transgender and Non-Binary.

I am also earning a doctoral degree in Counseling Psychology and have developed a love for psychological assessment. Similar to therapy, I have a collaborative approach to testing. This means your thoughts and opinions are just as important as my training in testing.

I strongly believe in the transformative power of therapy. I work with clients using curiosity and understanding to explore the roadblocks that keep them from becoming who they want to be. These roadblocks can be met with skills and tools or space to process, ultimately highlighting the client’s own ability to create change. Each therapy session is unique to the individual and their current challenges. I am passionate about creating a collaborative therapeutic relationship, and am dedicated to finding the style of therapy that works best for each client.

I use a blend of evidence-based approaches like CBT, ACT, mindfulness, and offer a direct, holistic, solution-focused lens. At the heart of my work is person-centered therapy, meaning I see you as the expert on your own life.

I specialize in working with young women starting at age 15, but enjoy working with clients of all genders and ages, including couples. My services are offered both in person and via telehealth, depending on the client’s preference and my availability.
